Populární německá hardrocková skupina. Založena v r. 1965 v Hannoveru, v době, kdy R. Schenkerovi (nar. 1948) bylo teprve 17 let (stejně starý je i K. Meine). Začínali s písničkami Who, Rolling Stones a Kinks. Sestava se stabilizuje až v r. 1971....

Píseň: I've Got To Be Free

Interpret:
Scorpions
Album:
Taken By Force
You´re burning my heart
you´re burning my mind
you´re spoiling my art
you´re wasting my time


No taste in your actions
no taste in your line
no truth or direction
no true love of mine


You say you wanna be a superstar
don´t give a damn how to get that far
you say you wanna ride a diamond car
but I don´t like your fat cigar.


Hey, hey, hey don´t you wanna see
I´m not your stepping stone
hey, hey, hey I´ve got to be free
so leave my life alone


You´re in love with success
you´re spilling my wine
don´t follow my tracks, babe
you ways are not mine


Your main god is money
you´re wasting my life
I´m not your Bugs Bunny
and you´re not my wife


You say you only do it for our best
but you don´t wanna see what I detest
you think me crack-brained
that I´m gonna leave your show
but you can´t see what I see
so let me go.
